Arizona Living and Homie!





I lived in Arizona for 3-1/2 years and it was such a blast. I was in my early 20's, became super involved with other young adults my age, went on lots of outdoor adventures and learned a lot about myself while making new friends. Despite the fun times, it definitely didn't start out fun or easy.



I was able to get a good deal on a house to rent but trying to find roommates to fill the other 2 rooms proved difficult. I could write stories about that! I moved to Arizona without a job in 2008 and it felt like it took forever to find the right fit or even any interest from employers at all. Despite that, I ended up at a couple great companies (one turned in to more seasonal) and I was even happier when my cousin and his family moved to Arizona so I actually had some family in the same state as me.


Have you looked around at houses for sale lately in Arizona? Have you noticed any with a Homie sign in the yard? Homie is a great way to buy and sell your home - without needing a realtor! They are tech-enabled real estate brokers in Utah and Arizona.  It's a flat fee of $1500 to list your home with them and on the buy side, Homie refunds up to $5000 at closing.  No need to pay a 6% commission any longer.


What would you do with an extra $5000? I could think of quite a few things! Some people use the money to go on vacation, get out of debt, have a baby...leave me a comment with your ideas!

Pinterest Parties, Ice Castles & More!

I've been upping my blogging lately and working on redoing what I do, as in, I have too many blogs and I am trying to think of what I can do to get rid of 1 or maybe 2 of them. In the meantime, while I figure that out, you may have noticed that Stacie's Place is now a .com! So excited to finally just DO that. I think it looks great and will be easier to tell people as well. Check out the Valentine's Pinterest Party I hosted last week I also took a quick trip to Idaho over the weekend with my sister and her boys Tony & I got to go to Midway to see the ice castles for our first time ever. School is going awesome!   I blogged about some moving tips for moms (or anyone!) and have you heard of the Great Inflatable Race ? What fun things have you been up to lately? Link me in a comment below and I will come check it out or comment back!
